Call to Honor:

A SEAL Brotherhood Novel

Book #1

by Tawny Weber

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE:
Contemporary Romance

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

“No man left
behind” is inscribed in the DNA of every SEAL and Lieutenant Diego Torres is no
exception. But with a team member killed—and the body missing— Diego’s honor is
sorely tested. Now his career and reputation are on the line, and a traitor is
hiding among them. Diego wants answers...and only one woman has them.

Single mom Harper
Maclean has two priorities—raising her son Nathan and starting a new life. Her
mysterious new neighbor may be impossibly charming, but Diego asks too many
questions about her past—and about the father of her child. Questions she fears
will reveal her burning attraction for Diego, and ultimately put them all in
danger’s path.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EXCERPT TWO:

IT
PAYS TO be a winner.

And
Diego Torres was a big believer in winning.

But
it was the winning that he liked.

The
competition.

The
thrill of testing his skills, pushing his limits. Of knowing he was better than
his adversary.

Yeah.
He liked knowing he was the best.

He
didn’t do it for reward.

Especially
not when the reward came by way of the pomp and pageantry of a ceremony like
today. Standing onstage in front of the various platoons that made up SEAL Team
7, listening to Admiral Cree pontificate was a pain in the ass. What made it
worse wasn’t the couple hundred sets of eyes inspecting him or the discomfort
of his dress whites, too tight across the shoulders.

It
was the damned shoes. Diego’s toes pinched in the mirror-bright black patent
leather, begging him to flex. He didn’t, of course. Not while standing at
attention. But damn. Give him a pair of combat boots any day.

As
the sun baked through his cap and the heat of the morning swirled around, he
wondered what yahoo had decided to hold this ceremony outdoors. And why it felt
so much hotter standing in the San Diego sun in whites than it did in the
Afghan desert in full combat gear. Probably because combat gear fit him better.

Diego
had spent a large portion of his life fighting over the wrong things. He’d
fought over turf. He’d fought over gang colors. Hell, if the mood struck, he’d
have fought over just how blue the sky was. It’d taken a bullet barely missing
his heart to clue him in to the fact that maybe the things he was fighting over
simply weren’t worth dying for.

INTERVIEW:

Good morning Tawny! Welcome to Fabulous and Brunette! We are thrilled to have you here and can’t
wait to learn more about you and your new book, “Call to Honor: A SEAL
Brotherhood Novel Book #1.”

Do you have any tattoos?
Where? When did you get it/them? Where are they on your body?I have 4 tattoos. I love ink as a form of self
expression, but am super picky about what I want to express with my body. So I have one on my ankle, another on my back
just below my neck, my largest is on the small of my back and I have a small
one on my wrist. I’ve gotten them all
between 2000 and 2013. I suppose that
means I’m due for another one.

Is your life anything like it was two years ago?In a lot of ways, my life is the same as it was two years
ago. I’m still a wife and a mother. I’m
still an author who adores the romance genre.
I still have to exercise like crazy to keep a handle on my weight and I
love chocolate like crazy. The only real
change that comes to mind is the challenges in publishing that have shifted
over the last two years. It’s an ongoing
learning curve in an ever-changing landscape.

How long have you been writing?I began writing in 2002, and sold my first book in
2006. That book, DOUBLE DARE, was
published in May of 2007, making this my ten year anniversary!!! In that time
I’ve published over 40 more books!

What advice would you give a new writer just starting
out?To understand Goal, Motivation and Conflict. Not just in the craft of writing, but in the
course of their career. If a writer
knows their writing goal, it’s easier to achieve. If they know why they want it, they can tap
into that motivation to keep going when things get tough. And by being aware of
the conflict they’ll face in the course of achieving that goal, they can better
strategize plans to overcome or work around the conflict. A lot of writers’ goals are the same. To earn a living at their craft or to hit a
bestseller list are strong, popular goals.
Some of the conflicts are universal, and some are personal. The state of the industry is a conflict we
all have to face, but family support varies from author to author, for
instance. But the motivation for their
goal is one thing that is truly unique to every author. Knowing that, I think, is the strongest tool
toward achieving their dream.

Tell us something about your newest release that is NOT
in the blurb.

This is the blurb for CALL TO HONOR:

“No man left behind” is inscribed in
the DNA of every SEAL and Lieutenant Diego Torres is no exception. But with a
team member killed—and the body missing— Diego’s honor is sorely tested. Now
his career and reputation are on the line, and a traitor is hiding among them.
Diego wants answers...and only one woman has them.

Single mom Harper
Maclean has two priorities—raising her son Nathan and starting a new life. Her
mysterious new neighbor may be impossibly charming, but Diego asks too many
questions about her past—and about the father of her child. Questions she fears
will reveal her burning attraction for Diego, and ultimately put them all in
danger’s path.

So something that isn’t included is that Harper is
actually suspected of treason! She’s
being tested and judged for a crime she isn’t even aware they think she’s
committed.

Thank you so much for
spending time with Fabulous and Brunette readers and sharing your exciting new
book with us! We wish you all the best
on your book tour!
